Spouse/Dependents

You are welcome to the visit the Veteran and Military Center! It is located in Allyn Hall, Room 131, and the staff is there to assist veterans, active duty, spouses, dependents and other eligible students in establishing the GI Bill and other educational benefits for which they qualify.

Before the Post-9/11 GI Bill program was signed into law, spouses and dependents had eligibility for education benefits through the Survivors and Dependents (DEA) program. Since August, 2009, service members enrolled in the Post-9/11 GI Bill program have, for the first time in history, been able to transfer unused educational benefits to their spouses or children.

Getting Started

If you are a first time applicant for VA education benefits, you will need to complete the following forms in addition to the Wright State forms below:

At the above website, you can complete online application forms or print and send the forms by mail. The online forms are recommended as they are processed much more quickly. If you need help with the process or need to know what to bring to the VA office, contact the Wright State Veteran and Miltary Center at (937) 775-5550 or veteransaffairs@wright.edu.

Shortly after you receive your Wright State Admissions letter, you will receive an email that contains a link to the Orientation. You will need your UID and password, also provided in your admissions letter. We encourage you to set aside about one-half hour to complete this interactive orientation.
